>>An amazing Floyd Landis comeback by RKRW put him back in first place.<< More like Lance Armstrong. Bulba, thanks for keeping the fire lit. 2006 is up for grabs.

8/11/06 Update A lousy week for biotechs and for the planet. At Friday's close, the Nasdaq Biotech Index was down -10.68% YTD (vs. -7.38% at the NBI's 8/4/06 close). The median for the 40 Charity Portfolios also fell for the week, and is now down -12.75% YTD (vs. -9.61% YTD at the prior week's close). Currently, just 4 of the 40 Charity Portfolios are in the black YTD and only 15 of the 40 portfolios are outperforming the NBI. Although it took a hit, RKRW's portfolio remains in the lead and is now up 20.5% YTD. We do have a new No. 2, as CYRAN (up 12.2% YTD) has pulled ahead of Wilder (up 11.1% YTD). Let's hope next week is more fun. Here's the Unofficial Top Ten list on 8/11/06: 8/11/06 Rank Name Total 1 RKRW 20,454 2 CYRAN 12,230 3 WILDER 11,060 4 NIGEL 8,579 5 IJ -3,242 6 MIKE -3,437 7 KRUNCH -3,789 8 ICEBRG -4,982 9 TEXAS -5,204 10 ROBERT -5,767 (All corrections greatly appreciated.)
